File Upload fails for large files

Hi,

I am using mongrel with nginx and I am facing problem when I try to
upload a large file. After googling about this, I came to know that I
need to configure nginx.conf file by setting ‘client_max_body_size’ to
a value of desired maximum file size. I did that but still it does not
seem to work. Files above 200 KB do not get uploaded. I also get a
weird error about sockets (Given below the nginx.conf file)

What am I doing wrong? Please help.

My nginx.conf lokos like this:

user postgres ;
worker_processes 2;

error_log /var/www/webapps/FileSharing/log/error.log notice;
pid /var/www/webapps/FileSharing/log/nginx.pid;

events {
worker_connections 1024;
}

default_type application/octet-stream;

#this if your on linux or bsd
